Today the totality of what gamepass encompasses is what will be explained here. Being able to stream to any device is cool but we as consumers don't grasp how cool. Imagine if xbox were to release a dedicated handheld. Wouldn't any "gamer" be interested in what this device might bring to the gaming landscape?

Look at the thread title, if that didn't interest you then why are you here?

Unbeknownst to you, gamepass including xcloud doesn't just make it so a feature you maybe don't use today will be available. What it essentially does is it gives you the option to turn any device into this threads title. Nobody thinks "xbox handheld" when you talk about gamepass but that is exactly what xcloud is. Except instead of having a separate ecosystem you can play your current library without having to be restricted by the power of undocked hardware ala the switch (720p for the loss)

Speaking of switch, the charm isn't to play its AAA titles on the go. You wanna play those docked on a big screen. Games like the touryst, tetris/ etc are cool on the go. Well you can do either very soon. When speaking on if gamepass is a deal or not are you factoring in that you get access to ther xbox handheld (in theory)

Well if it does make sense, you'll wanna eat properly which I'll of course show you how to. A standard bluetooth xbox controller will work, clips that connect a cellphone to a controller will run for $15 on average. If you want something a little fancier? Here you go.

Universal Gaming Controller for Xbox- Razer Kishi

A little pricey but I think I'll pull the trigger. I feel it'll solidify the handheld experience, like I can see myself using this over pulling out a controller.

breh. I've played Splatoon/BOTW/Odyssey/Xenoblade C2/Smash all in handheld and on the go.

The whole idea about handheld is for pure convenience.

I dunno if you own a switch yourself but that’s exactly it breh, the ability to seamlessly go from one to the other. At least 40-50% of my playthroughs on BotW, Pokemon Shield, Fire Emblem, and even big 3rd party titles like the Witcher 3 & Divinity 2 were in handheld mode. I even play a decent amount of Smash in tabletop mode if all the Docks/TV’s are occupied.

I’m excited for XCloud but Nintendo’s always gonna have that offline handheld lane on lock:yeshrug:

I hope just we get XCloud, PSNow/RemotePlay, AND Stadia compatibility on Switch cuz man my game library’s versatility would be GOAT:banderas:

There are many types of gamers right, let me introduce you to another perspective. I wouldn't be caught dead playing splatoon in public. Im talking strictly I'm in a public setting and I pull out a switch and just have a full fledged session. Like, that's some "when I was a kid shyt" I got a crying newborn, a 1 and 3yr old who would grab at the screen and or drop the system.

Here's another view, you single and ready to mingle. You got some trim lined up, you look clean, you feel good, just got the car detailed, pedicure and manicure, you set reservations for this lady. You pull up with some flowers and she's like up Gotta wait 15 min cuz she's in the shower. As soon as you pull out that switch? This entire reality disappears because you not doing all that and playing splatoon. As soon as a nikka say he plays splatoon my nikkaz be like "were his bytch at :shaq:"

That's my story and I'm standing by it...
They want that nintendo bag :mjlol:
Rare starting to look like it was well worth the 350 mil :hhh:

I represent hip hop and the witcher ain't what it do in the hood. With that said, my bytch ain't hip hop. She put in mad hours and everyone I know who plays it did the same. Same with the ppl on this site, so as a grown man when do you have time when you're out to play witcher? Maybe you have that kind of time, in fact you said you be skateboarding n shyt so yeah :francis: most adults don't have time to play AAA titles on the go. That's just a reality of growing up..
didnt read but I just copped the Razer Kishi xbox edition :banderas:
And how that thang ride? (Pause)

Miss me with your thirst to troll breh:comeon:. I play a lot of handheld because I have a house full of gamers and it's a super convenient option to have. It's not rocket science.



I remember you saying something along the lines "I've been a class clown all my life..." in some other thread. How the fukk you been at it this long and you still never been funny?:dead: Wrote all that try-hard shyt for nothing:heh:

I knew you'd get mad :smugbiden: bruh, you trolling cuz either you're a professional skateboarder or you're a kid. I got other gamers in the house too, that's why you buy multiples. I remember being a kid and my mom limiting my time on the TV. For kid gamers they'll love looking at a small screen for hundreds of hours at a time. Must be great for the eyes. And fukk playing on a big screen in hd. Let's play witcher while I'm grocery shopping. Sure I might run the shopping cart into a few items, we portable baby!!!

Your mentality tells all about where you stand in life, don't fret bruh. Im just speaking facts. Now kick, push
